Um, no.  ISPs aren't expected to report this themselves.  And the idea
came about because they noticed more and more spam coming from dial-up
IPs. 

And at least on my system, it blocks far more spam than anything else
I use, AND blocks far fewer legitemate connections than RBL or ORBS
have.   (Wow; just looked at the most recent stats, and for this
period I'm wrong; RSS blocked 75, DUL blocked 53, and RBL blocked 8.
I check them in that order.)
